However, Mu Zhaoyao clearly underestimated Juanjuan.
Even though she had only been there once, Juanjuan could clearly remember the way back; the little one had an extremely strong sense of direction.
Walking along the paths of the general's mansion, Juanjuan felt a sense of unreality, as if she were in a dream.
As I recall, I was still in Niantao Village not long ago. If nothing unexpected happens, I will continue to grow up in Niantao Village, and the furthest I might go is Songyuan County.
And now, she's actually walking in the general's mansion in the capital!
The little guy couldn't help but gasp, shaking his head as he tried to calm himself down.
Unexpectedly, a soft laugh came from behind.
There was also a respectful greeting from Mu Zhaoyao's maid: "This servant greets the Fifth Young Master."
The shadows of the trees swayed, and the handsome and gentle young man sat on two wheeled chairs. His face bore a striking resemblance to Mu Zhaoyuan, but compared to Mu Zhaoyuan, his eyes were calmer and gentler.
Juanjuan was hesitating whether to call him Uncle, Brother, or Fifth Young Master.
Mu Zhaoyuan emerged from a side path, muttering, "You little rascal! You can roll a wheel this fast!! You're afraid I'll push you flying, but you're the one who..."
Juanjuan: ? ?
Is this how Sister Mu interacts with her brother?
On the way back, when Sister Mu talked about her twin brother, she was full of pride and heartache.
How come now...
"Juanjuan is here!"
The moment Mu Zhaoyuan saw Juanjuan, she immediately stopped what she was about to say and softened her voice, trying to make the child think that what she had just seen and heard was an illusion.
Mu Qinqiu glanced at his younger sister, then placed his hand on the wheelchair beside him, moving the wheelchair away to create distance between himself and Mu Zhaoyuan.
"Juanjuan, this is my brother. My sister mentioned him to you on the way here!"
Mu Zhaoyuan moved behind her brother, patted his shoulder in a friendly manner, and then...
Mu Qinqiu: "Mu Zhaoyuan, you're already in your mid-twenties, and you still call yourself 'sister'..."
Mu Zhaoyuan secretly pinched Mu Qinqiu's arm, gritted her teeth, and whispered, "Shut up."
Juanjuan, who witnessed all of this: ...
[Hiss... Thank goodness, Juanjuan isn't like that; she's absolutely terrifying.]
Upon suddenly hearing her elder brother's voice, Juanjuan looked around but couldn't find him.
Big brother? What are you doing here? Or are you hiding?
Having just stolen some small gold from the Prime Minister's residence, Bai Yunqi, whose spiritual energy was abundant, used it to cheat and conceal his presence. Watching the way the Mu siblings interacted, he couldn't help but mentally complain.
Sorry, I couldn't resist.
The main reason is that it's right next door! Who could resist that soaring spiritual energy!
and!
[My second brother said the Prime Minister is incorruptible. If he's incorruptible, he certainly wouldn't be greedy for small amounts of gold. Therefore, the small amounts of gold in the mansion are ownerless! They don't have the Prime Minister's name engraved on them; whoever gets them keeps them!]
Bai Yunqi didn't dare to go too far, fearing that going too far would incur divine retribution; testing the waters little by little was the safest approach.
Moreover, he had also heard what Bai Yun'an had said not long ago.
The treasures in the Prime Minister's residence cannot all be moved at once, otherwise the network of relationships between various small groups in the court may undergo tremendous changes.
Bai Yunqi was worried that the changes were too drastic and might incur divine retribution.
so……
Instead of emptying a box, he randomly took a few from each box, aiming to avoid alerting the enemy!
[The old men in the sect were right. Little by little, I'll accumulate a lot. If I spread it out, and each family does a little bit, no one will notice anything amiss! And I will possess an enormous amount of spiritual power!]
It's not that I want to dominate the world, it's just that I want to suck in some spiritual energy when I see it... It's too difficult!
Juanjuan, listening to her older brother's broken-down screams: ...
So, did Big Brother just make a move against the little gold next door?
